ಭಾರತ ರತ್ನ. ಇಂಥ ಅತ್ಯದ್ಭುತ ತಬಲಾ ವಾದಕ ವಿದ್ವಾನ್ ಈ ಜಗತ್ತಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಯಾರೂ ಇಲ್ಲ ಎಂದರೆ ಅತಿಶಯೋಕ್ತಿಯಾಗಲಾರದು. ಧನ್ಯೋಸ್ಮಿ ಅವರ ಸಂಗೀತದ ಆರಾಧನೆ ಚಿರಕಾಲ ಇರಲಿ. God bless him every time
THIS IS WONDROUS USTAD ZAKIR HUSSAIN ALL RIGHT. DURING NOVEMBER, 1968, I HAVE SEEN PANDIT RAVI SHANKAR AND USTAD ALLA RAKHA PERFORM IN A WORLD PREMIERE AT THE QUEEN'S UNIVERSITY OF BELFAT, UK. THERE, MOST REVERENT PANDITJI HAD INTRODUCED USTAD ALLA RAKHA AS THE GREATEST TABLA PLAYER ON EARTH. THEN, EVEN DURING EARLY 1971 AT OXFORD WE HAD HEARD ABOUT A YOUNG GENIUS ENTHRALLING AUDIENCE AT BRADFORD. THAT WAS THE SUPER ENTHUSIAST YOUNG ZAKIR ALL RIGHT, PROBABLY AT 18/19.
When the God of music Sri Ravishankarji himself halts and enjoys this percussion, something has to be said for Zakirji. Proud to have lived in their times!
WE ARE ALL SO LUCKY TO SEE AND HEAR TALENT OF THIS NATURE. USTAAD ZAKIR HUSSAIN, IS A TABLA THAT WILL ALWAYS BE AMONGST THE BEST TABLA PLAYER. ZAKIR JI IS A PHENOMENAL TABLA PLAYER. HE PLAY FROM THE HEART. HE PLAYS FROM THE SOUL. HE IS GODS GIFT TO THE WORLD OF INDIAN CLASSICAL MUSIC. HE IS A UNIQUE TABLA PLAYER. I WILL ALWAYS HOLD HIM IN HIGH REGARDS. I WILL ALWAYS RESPECT HIM. I AM A DIE HARD ZAKIR FAN AND I WILL ALWAYS BE A DIE HARD AND LOYAL FAN. GOD BLESS YOU ZAKIR JI
Unlike 58 ???? Such a explosive performance ....... May God bless these disliker ..... Ustaad ji is nothing but a " Picture of confidence " and the Idol of practice.......which makes a man perfect . Salute Ustaad ji .......From the core of my Heart
Magical..heavenly...simply out of this world!! I must have watched this video hundreds of times... but I still can't resist myself from watching it again n again... What a legacy!! There's only one thing that can happen when these two maestros come together... and that's called MAGIC!! Hats off!!
I was getting this terrible headache which got progressively worse. Lying down wasnt helping so I came to my comp and youtubed Zakir's tabla videos ... this was the second piece I watched and by the end of it my headache has actually disappeared! What peace what bliss! Zakir you are God!
there are many pandits and ustads in Tabla and zakir is combination of all. zakir has redefined what is Tabla playing. this sort of prodigal talnt and genious comes once in 500 years
Ravi shankar must be in remembrance of ustad Allah rakha khan whom he used to play for 30 long years and now his son playing he gave zakir g chance to perform like his own son...... What a great scene to watch
I will play like this one day....but only in my dreams ...I know that too .....I'm proud that India has such talent which the whole world does not have.....His speed of playing and the variations is beyond imagination
thnx my friend i got the ticket,i will be there on 19th cant wait for that day. a dream will come true.hope to see u there.thanks again my dear.i appreciate ur help. thnx alot.
Amazing sound. Does anyone know what a phyta thekha is? I'm not sure that's how you spell it. Amazing performance. He has such a light and beautiful style of playing.
Oh this is GLORIOUS! Such articulation! And the older gentlemen, Ravi Shankar?, he just seems so proud as he looks on. Did Mr. Shankar train him? For it almost seemed like a master watching his aprentice come into his own. Very entertaining. I wonder if I could see a performance live? Does anyone know? Could you tell me please?!
I'd love too explain. See, Ustad Zakir Hussain was accompanying Pandit Ravi Shankar in this concert and Raviji gave him some space to play on his own. Ustad Zakir Hussain is playing the Teen Taal. What he plays is a conglomeration of non traditional bits, fixed traditional compositions (like that of Ustad Ahmed Jan Thirakhwa) and mind boggling improvisations.
It would be fascinating to hear Zakir play with Jordan Rudess of Dream Theatre...(And if I may dream, Steve Vai as well...) Peace BR/The Ghost of Elvis & The Soul Eater Videos Canada
